HAP PALMER: CHILDREN'S MUSIC & AUTISM 

@@thomasisatwin you can reach out to him. I provided his email at the End of the video and in the description

@@thomasisatwin you can mention to him how influential he has been to you and your fondest memories and mention that you watched my interview with him and let him know you have Autism too and ask him when he would like to meet.

@@thomasisatwin ok you can do so. We could schedule a Zoom call and you can introduce me to your family. Send me an email. My email is on the about section on my channel

Yup. Couldn't agree more

Touché. His music will forever hold a special place in my heart and soul no matter how old I am. I still listen to and watch the music video to Colors every so often. I was so fortunate to have gotten to speak to him.

@@KennyValdivia95 I wish I could be so lucky. I’m a jazz musician which is very different from Palmer’s work. But he’s still a hero to me whenever I stop a while and think of him.

He responds to emails so you could give it a shot and see if he writes back: hap.palmer@gmail.com

Those were definitely great memories! Thanks for sharing

good job!

You're welcome. Glad you liked it. Yes his music has definitely been very beneficial in my life among many others

@@KennyValdivia95 - What about The Kidsongs TV Show?

@@loveyourselfbeyourself890 that was good too

You Really Keeping Us Motivated Through Out The Day

Those are definitely classics for sure! I still listen to them to this day

@@KennyValdivia95 And I realized that beginning in 2000, the Baby Songs theme sounded more slightly remixed, higher quality and lower pitched, compared to the 1999 releases which sounded more original like it was when it was first heard in the 1980s. sounded a little bit higher pitched and sounded slightly lower quality to the tune and here are some videos where you can find the 2 different versions of the Baby Songs theme. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YgbWxROTjtw.html (remixed high quality low pitched version) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P2wGNtIkSwU.html (original low quality high pitched version) The original high pitched low quality version was heard from 1987 to 1999. However the original high pitched low quality version was surprisingly heard at the end of the 2000 VHS of Baby Songs Animals, while the remixed low pitched high quality version was heard at the beginning. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ICAYhr5eqDY.html

@@KennyValdivia95 And the original high pitched low quality version also adds funky synthesizer notes at the end of the song, while the remixed one does not have the synthesizer notes at the end during the last 7 notes.

@@KennyValdivia95 I even thought of a custom VHS release from November 30, 1999, called Hap Palmer's Greatest Hits. with 15 songs instead of 10. The songs would be 1. Baby's Good Doggie 2. Walking 3. Peek a Boo 4. Tap Your Sticks 5. Betty Beep 6. My Baby 7. Security 8. Raggedy Rag Doll Friend 9. Wash Rag Blues 10. Alphabet In Motion 11. We're On Our Way 12. So Big 13. Rub a Dub 14. Teddy Bear 15. Bean Bag Alphabet Rag. It's the last release to have the original low quality high pitched theme full time at both the beginning and the end.

@@FlickaLovaReturns yeah those are all good songs. I'm surprised Colors was not on there.

Music helps cope with mine
